Private Huddling to Dodge Public Scrutiny

As the cardinals of the Catholic church huddle in secret at the Vatican, prayerfully choosing who among them will be elevated to be the next pope, I can't help but note the parallels with the International Olympic Committee, who will soon huddle in private as well, away from the scrutiny that public decisions invite, to choose the next Olympic sport. May god have mercy on their souls!
